Research is proposed to investigate the feasibility of modifying the composition and microstructure of thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems to enable enhanced damping capacity while retaining or impr ...

The principal aim of this program is to develop non-toxic corrosion resistant coatings to replace cadmium for tailhook applications on the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF). These coatings need to be dense, ...

"Rotors, such as for gas turbine engines and the like, are typically subjected to high stresses and high temperatures. Extensive efforts have been made over the years to develop new alloys, new fabric ...

Alternative coatings and coating approaches are required to improve the wear and corrosion resistance of the interior of landing gear components. These surfaces have traditionally contained electropla ...

The Small Business Technology Transfer Research (STTR) Phase I project will develop a new deposition technology to enable the production of novel Thermal Barrier Coating (TBC) compositions having incr ...
